How do I use the Bulk Import tool?

Click the "Bulk Import" link in the Getting Started box of your lobby as seen here.

If all of your requests are for standard default size URLs you can simply enter one (1) URL per line in the space provided and click the "Submit!" button at the bottom of the page.

Note

The Bulk Import tool does support some of the PRO Features. If you intend to use these, the format is as follows: (also specified on the Bulk Import page)

Custom Sizes · Inside Pages · Full-Length · Browser Resolution · Refresh On-Demand

Format (use $ as the delimiter):
dom.tld/path/to/page.htm$xmax$ymax$inside$full$nrx$nry$redo

// Standard capture of shrinktheweb.com homepage:
shrinktheweb.com

// Custom Size (400x300) capture of inside page:
www.shrinktheweb.com/partners-stw.htm$400$300$1$0$1024$768

// Full-length (default 102xFull) capture:
www.shrinktheweb.com$$$$1

// We also accept custom schemes (i.e. http, https, ftp):
https://www.somedomain.com$200$$$$1

*Notice that you may simply omit values (in order) as needed.

Please note that this form simply "imports" the requests. It will not display them to you.

If you want to see what was imported, you will need to use the "Thumbnail History" search.

Hi,

I just bought the Custom Size Pro feature but i'm having trouble getting them.

I have tried all sorts of combinations but it skips every time I try.

Could you please give a hint at what I need to type in each line for generating for example 200x150 thumbs?

heres 5 URL's i tried but not sure what delimiters to add:

http://www.imageoverlayads.com
http://www.bonuslaunchaproduct.com
http://www.lazycashformula.com
http://www.1dayproductcreator.com
http://www.imstitute.com

Heres the results im getting:

Skipped: http://www.imageoverlayads.com$200$150
Skipped: http://www.bonuslaunchaproduct.com$200$150
Skipped: http://www.lazycashformula.com$200$150
Skipped: http://www.1dayproductcreator.com$200$150
Skipped: http://www.imstitute.com$200$150

Thanks in Advance,

Peter.

Hi Peter,

If you want custom size (PLEASE NOTE: 200x150 is NOT a custom size), then this is the part of the original post that is relevant:

Quote:

You would replace $xmax with the desired output image width.
Then you replace $ymax with the desired output image height.

and

Going by this example but since you are not using inside, your request would look like:

www.shrinktheweb.com$400$300$0$0$1024$768

or more simply:

www.shrinktheweb.com$400$300

Since you specifically asked for 200x150 images, those are a default size and if they are "skipped", it means they have already been captured. Did you search for them in the PagePix History search?

Makes sense?
